Having just checked my blog it seems that my last post was in November. OH long time, however, in that time many things have happened which may allow for my laps in blogging. In my absence from the blog world and the creating of artworks, i was creating something else.

On the 4th of March 2010, I gave birth to the most handsome little boy, Jaxson Vincent. I hope that allows for my time away. As everything is now getting easier (having been extremely sick), and having the rest of the year off work I do hope to become more focused on my blog and let you share in my journey as a mother and newly inspired artist.

Colour, from an audience viewpoint is an intense experience which expands the mind and creates possibilities. I believe that when colour is interpreted in its purest state and is seen as vivid and dramatic, a new creation can be made. As an artist and designer, I am interested in fusing colour in multi layers; creating depth and allowing the material itself to manifest into an extraordinary form, idea, motif, or landscape for the viewer to explore. From an intuitive approach, my art making is created in layers. Through the playful and spontaneous acts of pouring, drawing, mark making, experimenting and manipulating paint and mediums, these processes help create windows which can be perceived as gateways to the subconscious mind and intuitive philosophies. The act of painting as well as the interaction and communication between the conscious and subconscious plays a pivotal and recurrent developmental practice in my work in reference to what inspires me in the everyday world and who I am.
